#BIRTHDAY: Marie Bergman from Sweden is 74 today Hold onto your hats, as we have a Swedish birthday today. Hats is an apt word, as today’s clip shows someone wearing a hat. Inside. How very daring. Today’s birthday girl Marie Bergman never actually participated as a soloist, but […]

#BIRTHDAY: José Vélez from Spain is 73 today There’s often a debate over whether a national final or an internal selection is the right way to go. A national final, and you run the risk of the public picking a novelty. Our friends in Spain generally went down […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kamil Mikulčík from Slovakia is 47 today Our friends at the EBU encourage as many countries as possible to take part in our favourite TV show. Some decide against it, either due to funding or lack of interest by the broadcaster. Us diehard fans would love to […]

#BIRTHDAY: Raphael Gualazzi from Italy is 43 today It was back in late 2010/early 2011 that websites were previewing a massive announcement that we’d remember for ever. It was an intriguing thing to say, and did, momentarily, have me wondering what it would be. An expanded contest of […]
